[...] If you transform a menu with hidden options (which do NOT "depend on" the menu - they can't even) into a menuconfig (continuing not to depend on the menuconfig), the presentation fucks up (especially in ncurses-menuconfig). That is a good hint something should be taken more seriously.
Sorry, I didn't follow this "hidden options" thing at all ...
So, for menus with hidden options I had a number of options how to go about them: - move the hidden options before the menuconfig or after, so the presentation does not bork; - leave the menu as-is because there's just so many hidden options and a menuconfig entry is detrimental
... but the second method seems sane and safe, still :-)
So what do we need? * 'configmenu' option (with 'endconfigmenu') that works the same as 'menu' and 'endmenu' (so we can have hidden options), but at the same time make the ---> and options inside it disappear when it is not selected. Currently, no other type seems to satisfy this.
(Yes, and with that implicit if-endif block to make "depends on" the configmenu for those config options that are inside it automatic) * Also, some "[MENU]" kind of prefix/tag in the text of configmenu options would also be nice.
